CONDITIONS OF SALE

‘ entification and part payment by buyer: The name of the buyer of each lot

may at the option of the auctioneer be put up again and re-sold.

and thereafter neither the consignor nor the Association is responsible for the loss or

V. Delivery of purchases: Delivery of any purchases will be made only upon pay- 
ment of the total amount due forall purchases at the sale. 

Deliveries will be made at the place of sale or at the storage warehouse to which 
purchases may have been removed. 

Deliveries at the American Art Galleries will be made only between the hours of 
9 A. M. and 1 P. M. on sales’.days and on other days—except holidays, when no deliveries

rectly and endeavors therein and also at the actual time of sale to point out any error, 
defect or imperfection, but guaranty is not made either by the owner or the Association 
of the correctness of the description, genuineness, authenticity or condition of any lot 
and no sale will be set aside on account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing or 
imperfection not noted or pointed out. Every lot is sold “as is” and without recourse. 

Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior to its sale, and the 
Association will give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy expert to the 
effect that any lot has been incorrectly catalogued and in its judgment may thereafter 
sell the lot as catalogued or make mention of the opinion of such expert, who thereby 
will become responsible for such damage as might result were his opinion without 
foundation. .

parties on orders transmitted to it by mail, telegraph or telephone will be faithfully 
attended to without charge or commission. Any purchases so made will be subject to 
the foregoing conditions of sale except that, in the event of a purchase of a lot of one 
or more books by or for a purchaser who has not through himself or his agent been 
present at the exhibition or sale, the Association will permit such lot to be returned within 
ten days from the date of sale and the purchase money will be refunded if the lot 
in any manner differs from its catalogue description. : . :

be given, but also. the title, and bids should be stated to be so much for the lot, and 
when the lot consists of one or more volumes of books or objects of art, the bid per
